General Enquiries

If you contact a member of
the ASDC team over the phone or by email and your reason for connecting with
us relates to a possible ongoing relationship with ASDC or our members, we will
hold the personal data you provide us with (for example name, job title, email
contact and affiliated organisation) on a secure database. We hold this data
under legitimate interest and use this information to contact you to discuss
your enquiry and provide you with the information, opportunities, news or
resources that support you and your organisation.

We will never email you
marketing materials about our events and programmes without your specific
permission for us to do so.

If you are not part of our
current membership, we will seek your permission before we only provide
introductions to other members, funders or colleagues with similar interests,
where we believe it to be of benefit to you or your organisation.

Any consent you provide us
with will be clearly recorded. We will hold information about the purpose,
method and date of the consent you have provided us on our secure database.

We only hold the information
we require to fulfil our mission and as a national network and membership
organisation. We will delete your information when it is no longer relevant or
required. You always have the right to update your information, the right be
forgotten or the right to request a copy of all the information we hold about
you. Please see our main Privacy page (www.sciencecentres.org.uk/privacy)
where your rights are explained explore all of your rights.

We will not rent or sell your
personal information to any other organisation for their use in any way.

Google
forms

We occasionally utilise google forms or documents to conduct surveys or connect
people within the informal science learning sector.

The information contained within the form is only used for
the duration that is useful and necessary to be held. It is then deleted from
the ASDC profile. We will record within our database that you have taken part
in a national survey. All information when presented from national surveys is
anonymised before it is shared with the sector.

We cannot access any personal data about you ourselves as we are not the Data
Controller for your Google profile data and you would need to contact Google
directly for this information. However, data profiling may occur through using
this platform. Therefore ASDC is always happy to receive your information
directly through conversation with us on email or telephone:
